Writable for Teachers

Engage Your Students

Writable makes the writing process more accessible for students, with smaller tasks and built-in scaffolding. Writers become more independent and motivated during review and revision, relying on structured, anonymous peer feedback and teacher guidance to improve their writing.

Extend Your Instruction

Whether you’re using a workshop model, inquiry-based learning, or explicit instruction, Writable allows you to extend writing practice from your instruction. Use our assignments, rubrics and prompts, or import your own. Writable also works with classroom tools like Google Docs & Microsoft.

Target Your Feedback

Writable helps you see what’s happening throughout the writing process – earlier. See who’s “on watch” for each skill, model what good revision looks like, and differentiate writing for struggling writers through sub-groups and scaffolded assignments.

Writable for Schools

Support Your Curriculum

Writable can adapt to fit a purchased curriculum, district-adapted rubrics, or a set of state-specific writing priorities. Assignments and rubrics can be shared across a district – and across subject areas – for a more unified writing program tied to core skills.

Monitor Growth

Writable helps you administer pre- and post- writing assessments to quickly gauge students’ growth in each genre of writing. Schools can organize and monitor their writing program goals, while teachers group students for instruction and adjust their lessons based on individual needs.

Prepare for Assessments

Whether your students are taking the ACT/SAT, APs, SBAC or another state summative, Writable makes it easy to assign practice that mirrors the writing rubrics and format of the tests.

Our Teachers

Teachers are at the center of what we’re building and why it matters. Here are just a few of our writing rockstars.

Kelly D
9th Grade Teacher

“Writable has been great for trying to increase the frequency of writing in my classroom. By “crowdsourcing” peer reviews, the app helps me ensure students receive timely feedback and revise their work on an ongoing basis. They don’t have to wait for me to look at their writing to start to improve it. It also takes the pressure off me to “grade” everything. Overall, Writable seems to keep my students focused and motivated to improve their writing “stats.”

“Even with the ability to track changes in a word processor and review rough drafts, our students’ writing processes have – until now – been largely invisible. Writable invites teachers to scaffold and participate in their students’ writing, response, and revision in ways we simply were unable to see before.”

Sarah M
6th Grade Teacher

“I model and teach my students how to give and receive quality feedback in my classroom. I am using Writable alongside Google Docs when I want my students’ work to go through peer review and revision. I not only love the rubrics that are attached, but also how easy it is for students to see and learn from the work of their peers. This helps hold them accountable for presenting their best work. As a result, my students got really excited about the prompts and ability to write for a broader audience.”

Dena G
4th / 5th Grade Teacher

“Writable is such a powerful tool to embed in your classroom. Prior to implementing Writable, having students revise their writing, was a long and arduous process, with them not seeing the value in it, since in their minds they were “done writing.” With Writable, not only do my students love to write more, but they look forward to the revision process since it’s done by their own peers in an anonymous way. Taking away the students’ names have led to a more authentic reflections and truthful feedback instead of only selecting to revise their friends’ work.”

Tom C
4th Grade Teacher

“With Writable, I’m seeing much more focus with my students during our writer’s workshop time. There’s a small cohort of students that always need a lot of support, and they are now more independent. The Writable team has worked to understand how my mini-lessons and revisions work, and they are adapting the program quickly based on my direct feedback.”

Greg Garner
Instructional Coach
Friday Institute

“Writable focuses and motivates the process of writing throughout all phases of the writer’s workshop model. Teachers can easily progress-monitor and students can self-assess their own development, making learning to be a better writer easier than ever.”

Julie C
12th Grade Teacher

“Writable turned my class into a feedback machine. Students revise more because they get feedback while they are in the process of writing. They are building good writing habits, and their work product shows it.”
